India has been Tparticularly hard hit with a sharp rise in daily new cases reaching record levels, overwhelming the health care system. The crisis has been marked by a shortage of beds, oxygen, and medicines, prompting many countries to send supplies. The plans for an ambitious rollout of vaccines for adults above 18 have run into bottlenecks due to a lack of vaccine supply and distribution. These are formidable challenges to be overcome. This situation has developed despite major global efforts at containing and reducing the spread. Scientific challenges arise due to the mutations in the virus and their impact on the immunity of humans. Restrictions on social interactions, exhortations for responsible behaviour, vaccinations, etc., have not yet succeeded, and may need to be reassessed and stepped up. Access to vaccines remains problematic compounded by a tendency for the economically strong to capture the doses. However, economic recovery is looking more promising and offers the hope that jobs and incomes will pick up. The issue of pandemic control and the future of WHO and international health collaboration remains intensely debated, including a possible new approach based on an international treaty on pandemic control. There is a perception that in the early stage of the pandemic, there were many gaps in information sharing and that stronger measures will be needed in future. A consensus on the need for a ‘One Health’ approach and on ensuring equitable access to health may hopefully emerge into something concrete in future. All this shows the importance of health diplomacy, especially for optimal use of capabilities of all countries through more effective sharing of scientific research and health capability such as vaccines. The pandemic may have indeed taught humanity some valuable lessons. Science, Technology and Innovation cooperation across countries is facing several challenges, including the tensions between the US and China over technology issues, the militarisation of outer space and cyberspace, disruptive technologies such as AI, the vast efforts required to combat climate change and to achieve the sustainable development goals by 2030. These are only a few of the challenges on the horizon. Tackling these will require science diplomacy efforts on a much greater scale. The focus cannot be simply on narrowly defined catchy slogans and goals such as “net zero emissions by 2050” but must go to the fundamental causes and roots of the challenges, with concrete milestones and measurement of progress. During the year-long COVID-19 pandemic, people, institutions and governments have resorted to online working, including the widespread use of webinars, and work from home systems. This has proved to be cost and resource-effective, productive, and generated better participation. UN conferences, including large meetings, have taken SCIENCE DIPLOMACY REVIEW | Vol. 3, No. 1 | April 2021│1 place with good arrangements for discussions and voting on decisions and resolutions. A new phase of digital diplomacy is emerging which permits interactions between high- level leaders to take place much more easily. Web-based platforms have improved and become familiar to people. Much of this may remain with us even after the pandemic ebbs. Science diplomacy in its online avatar has come into being. However, quality and speed of internet connectivity remain a problem in many countries. In this issue, we present articles covering a wide variety of topics related to science diplomacy. Maria Rentetzi covers the history of nuclear diplomacy and efforts to promote the use of atomic energy while reducing the potential of nuclear weapons. This is a timely article given the forthcoming NPT Review conference in 2021 and the entry into force of the Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). The article by Trithesh Nandan analyses the transmission of COVID-19 infections and enumerates ten commandments for the post-COVID world. The third article by Meyer et. al. surveys the European experience in training in science diplomacy and discusses possibilities for further widening and deepening the New Generation of Trainings on Science Diplomacy for Global Challenges. In the perspective section, Zane Sime’s explores the circulation of scientific ideas. The potential of India’s new Science, Technology and Innovation Policy 2020 is analysed by Basir Ahmed, with a focus on a more effective role in shaping multilateral norms and standards. Archana Sharma’s perspective explores India’s scientific heritage and the future of mega-science diplomacy. We are also re-publishing the article, “Science Diplomacy and Politics” by Late Prof. M. Anandakrishnan, formerly Professor of Engineering at IIT Kanpur and India’s first Science Counsellor at Indian Embassy in Washington DC. The issue includes a report review that covers the UNCTAD report on technology and innovation. This issue presents Elke Dall and Mitchell Young’s event report titled Using Future Scenarios of Science Diplomacy for Addressing Global Challenges. In the institutions’ section, the issue reviews the Third World Academy of Sciences (TWAS) and the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES). The webinar report on India Taiwan S&T cooperation held recently is also included. Under the events section, reviews of several recent events are presented, including the Global Young Academy (GYA) workshop, the India International Science Fair (IISF) 2020 and Using Science Diplomacy for tackling Global Challenges (S4D4C)’s Final Networking Meeting. We thank our readers, authors, and stakeholders for their interest and support which is critical for further developing your journal Science Diplomacy Review into a global platform for the exchange of search, ideas, and experiences in the fast-growing world of science diplomacy. 2 │ SCIENCE DIPLOMACY REVIEW|

  • Brazil's Ascendance: the Soft Power Role of Global Health Diplomacy
    Brazil’s Ascendance: The soft power role of global health diplomacy By Kelley Lee and Eduardo J. Gómez Introduction Brazil’s steady ascendance on the world stage over the past decade has been led, in large part, by the country’s growing economic might. A much lauded BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) country blessed by vast resources, Brazil is predicted to emerge this century as a regional and global economic powerhouse. However, the country’s rising influence must also be understood as the product of an effective foreign policy and, in particular, the assumption of high-profile diplomatic roles in negotiating to address key global issues such as climate change, nuclear non-proliferation and trade liberalisation. Among emerging economies, Brazil has been particularly adept at leveraging what is de- scribed as “soft power”, defined as the capac- ity to persuade or attract others to do what one wants through the force of ideas, knowl- edge and values. Coined by Joseph Nye, the concept of soft power contrasts with “hard power” whereby coercion (underpinned by years, world leaders have begun to talk about advocates the use of health care as an instru- military and economic might) is used to in- “smart power” whereby soft and hard power ment for furthering foreign policy goals.

  • Defining Health Diplomacy: Changing Demands in the Era of Globalization
    THE MILBANK QUARTERLY A MULTIDISCIPLINARY JOURNAL OF POPULATION HEALTH AND HEALTH POLICY Defining Health Diplomacy: Changing Demands in the Era of Globalization REBECCA KATZ, SARAH KORNBLET, GRACEARNOLD,ERICLIEF, and JULIE E. FISCHER George Washington University; Stimson Global Health Security Program Context: Accelerated globalization has produced obvious changes in diplomatic purposes and practices. Health issues have become increasingly preeminent in the evolving global diplomacy agenda. More leaders in academia and policy are thinking about how to structure and utilize diplomacy in pursuit of global health goals. Methods: In this article, we describe the context, practice, and components of global health diplomacy, as applied operationally. We examine the foundations of various approaches to global health diplomacy, along with their implications for the policies shaping the international public health and foreign policy environments. Based on these observations, we propose a taxonomy for the subdiscipline. Findings: Expanding demands on global health diplomacy require a delicate combination of technical expertise, legal knowledge, and diplomatic skills that have not been systematically cultivated among either foreign service or global health professionals. Nonetheless, high expectations that global health initia- tives will achieve development and diplomatic goals beyond the immediate technical objectives may be thwarted by this gap. Conclusions: The deepening links between health and foreign policy require both the diplomatic and global health communities to reexamine the skills, comprehension, and resources necessary to achieve their mutual objectives. Keywords: Global health, diplomacy, foreign policy.

  • Migration Diplomacy in World Politics

ADAMSON SOAS, University of London AND GERASIMOS TSOURAPAS University of Birmingham Abstract: Academic and policy debates on migration and refugee “crises” across the world have yet to engage fully with the importance of cross bor- der population mobility for states’ diplomatic strategies. This article sets forth the concept of “migration diplomacy” as an object of analysis for academics and practitioners alike, distinguishing it from other forms of migration-related policies and practices. It draws on realist approaches in international relations to identify how the interests and power of state ac- tors are affected by their position in migration systems, namely the extent to which they are migration-sending, migration-receiving, or transit states. The article then discusses how migration issues connect with other areas of state interest and diplomacy, including security interests, economic in- terests and issues of identity, soft power, and public diplomacy. Finally, the article suggests the utility of applying a rationalist framework based on states’ interests in absolute versus relative gains as a means of examining the bargaining strategies used by states in instances of migration diplo- macy. Resumen: Los debates académicos y de políticas sobre la migración y las « crisis » de refugiados en todo el mundo aún no han abordado ple- namente la importancia de la movilidad transfronteriza de la población para las estrategias diplomáticas de los estados.

While there was surprise in some quarters when U.S. military personnel were deployed to combat Ebola in the last months of 2014, the Department of Defense actually has a long history of medical activity. In its current form, DoD medical outreach cannot likely garner soft power in the way that the Chinese and Cuban programs can, but with a few modifications, the U.S.

Moreover, few studies about science festivals for special education students are conducted. This study is based on findings from five years of reflective writings and drawings on Seullim Science Festivals collected by the Busan Institute of Science Education in Korea. Seullim Science Festival aims to give opportunities for Special Education students to engage in a variety of science experiments and to enjoy the basic rights of science for all students. The rich qualitative data were analyzed using a ground theory and categorized by the themes. The findings presented in this paper show the impressions of the special education students on the festivals and their pride in being a participating member. Additionally, the festivals gave opportunities for non-special education students to become more insightful understanding to special education students and to engage in science. The authors of the current study hope other science festival organizers and science educators find the information useful.
